About the Artist
I-Chin Lin
Born in Yunlin County in 1983, Lin cultivated his vision of choreography through long-term field studies of the local culture. With the intention to construct a unique style and method by using the physical body, Lin turned to theater as a medium to transform and re-create contemporary art.Lin has observed the nature of body movements through local culture, language, diet, environment, social history and other backgrounds. Having collaborated with the same group of professional and amateur dancers for many years, they work to find ways to exercise the body for the soul. Together, they dance and create, continuing a research and dialogue made to last.

Born in 1989 in Yunlin, Lin
is the current producer of Mauvais Chausson Dance Theatre. The 2018-2019
resident artist of Mauvais Chausson has participated in administrative planning
and execution of several productions. Now with the vision of a professional
producer, he is committed to locally rooting the dance group while making the
step onto the international stage.
Lin’s long-term focus is on
body-based artistic work, using “play” and “pleasure” as the core of his
creations. He is currently undergoing research on the traditional Taiwanese
religious troupe parades of the Guan Jiang Sho and how it transfers to
the contemporary theater.
